Growing Out OF the Ausrchiats' Hanging.
Excited Employees.
CuIcAao, Nov. 24--There is trouble
brewing among the brswors, The friend
ly relations between the employer1 and
their men were not improved by circu-
lar Issued by companies yesterday. No
vember IL, the day tho Anarchists wore
executed, the brewers and malaters quit
work and spent the day in mourning and
drinking beer to drown their SORROW.
They had but one days notice Of this
movo and the houses were left in an ON
barrassing condition in consequence. The
employers have issued q circular inform
ing their men that 1t would not be
healthy for them to repeat their
iormer exploit, Incidentally throwing out
tho hin. that it would DO good policy to
lot up little on their expression Of sym
pathy with the Anarchist dead or their
wives. Notice OF this, repeated in Ger
man, was posted on the houses yesterday
and created great excitement among the
mon. The bosses we're denounced in un-
measured terms, ut the meeting last night,
and the hot-headed faction wero in favor
Of bringing their employees to time for
this 'insult." No sction was taken, but
it is probable that little heed will be taken
OF tho circular. The brewers and NAL

The ISrELLIUENcER IN .bie this morning

tragedies in Roane county. Tho plain
narrative needs no establishment to
make it thrilling. Fortunately for this
State It has never before known anything
like this, and it is to bo hoped that tho
punishment Of the murderers may be SO
thorough thatthe frat will aleo be tho last.
The fact that the murders were COM
mitted by an organized band, bound to.
gether to defy the law under any and all
circumstances, mskes their puniahment
to the lss. degree prime necessity to a
State whose people gro law abiding and
peaceful.
II Heems that politics cut figure in the
bloody work. The three murdered men
we're Republicans. Every man in the
Consolidated Band is a Democrat. Dan
Cunningham, whom they wanted 10 lynch
also, is Republican and an active one.
